"De facto government shutdown.
The Congressional Black Caucus is calling on its members "to be as disruptive to Speaker Ryan as possible next week" when the House returns for business on Tuesday.
The Washington Examiner has obtained a memo sent to Democratic offices that states that CBC members are coordinating a "day of action on the floor in regards to gun violence."
The plan involves members giving speeches throughout the day calling for further federal restrictions on the possession and use of guns. The memo also asks members to be present for a House Rules Committee that afternoon regarding on the terrorism and gun control legislation slated for action on the floor Wednesday.
"During Votes – Members are encouraged to have a picture (not poster board, but a printed piece of paper with an image of a constituent killed by a firearm)," the memo stated.
